A Rocket Ship

A fantastic car. Fast, Comfortable, High Tech and Beautiful. Mediterranean Blue Metallic over Black Nappa Leather. Twin Turbo V8. This is my fourth BMW, and by far the Best.

Nice car but that performance is pricey

Car has many things I liked such as very fast and soft ride and a few negatives such as no heated seats or apple car play as they are options on this $80K car. I feel they should be standard at this price, I mean really $300 for apple car play as an option on a $80K car. overall its a big premium for this 8 cylinder engine.
